Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandez is certainly one of the highlights of the film. It"s her debut film in Bollywood but she has become a familiar name in the film circuit. Amitabh has praised her for her commitment and talent. She has got a dream break, and her prospect in Bollywood will very much depend on the fate of this film at the box-office.
